Description

Berger et al. 2017 p.79: Carrupt (2003) defined the Camosci Nappe including parts of the “Bedretto Zone” of Bianchi et al.(1998). This nappe comprises the “Sabbione Zone” of Leu (1986) and parts of the Termen Zone, and is dominated by dolomite and calcite marble and dark calcareous micaschist (“graphitic unit” of Carrupt 2003). The first group has often been considered as Triassic in age (Leu 1986, Carrupt 2003), whereas the ages of the other units are under debate (Leu 1986, Carrupt 2003). A detailed discussion of the Camosci Nappe is given in Carrupt (2003).

It is made up of sediments with South Helvetic to Ultrahelvetic affinity.
